A man from Suffolk, who was diagnosed with early Alzheimer’s at the age of 50, is taking his passion for cycling to a new level in June, by leading a team to pedal 330 miles across the country in 6 days for Dementia Help to raise funds for YoungDementia UK.

Peter Berry is a co-director of Dementia Help, a free online resource designed to support the growing number of dementia carers across the country, and he will be cycling alongside the founder and Managing Director of Dementia Help, Christina Neal, and its Website Editor, Dave Collison.

The challenge starts on Monday 25 June 2018 in Wales and ends on Saturday 30 June 2018 in Suffolk.

The WDBS Welsh Open will be held at Redz Snooker Club from 30 June – 2 July 2017 and for the first time will be open to players from ALL eight disability classification groups and will be played using a Six Red format.

As at previous events, the weekend will begin with a Friday open day, at which players with all disabilities are encouraged to attend and try snooker, with free practice and coaching from accredited WPBSA World Snooker coaches available. Prize money will be available at the event subject to sponsorship.

The Wingate Five Nations team has successfully completed their heroic challenge to cycle a 520 mile route through Wales, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and England to raise over £5000 for The Wingate Centre in Nantwich, enabling around 40 disabled children to have a holiday!
